The creators of League of Legends and Halo Infinite are now collaborating with Limbitless Solutions. This organization produces prosthetics specifically for children.
Two development studios are partnering with the organization Limbitless Solutions. Riot Games (League of Legends) and 343 Industries (Halo Infinite) recently announced this. As part of this collaboration, prosthetics are being created in the design of Halo and League of Legends.
Comic-style Prosthetics
This is how the collaboration with the LoL developer came about: According to Riot’s official statement, the prosthetics were designed during an event called Thunderdome. The Thunderdome lasts 48 hours and is a kind of hackathon where everyone can participate.
This year, part of Riot focused on the design of prosthetics. They collaborated with Limbitless Solutions via live streaming and managed to do it in a very short time. Additionally, Riot donated $5,330 to the organization, which was collected during the Thunderdome.
In total, there are five different designs that were ultimately implemented:
- Odyssey Jinx
- Star Guardian
- Shurima
- Illaoi
- Maokai
The image shows Maokai, Star Guardian, Illaoi, and Odyssey Jinx from left to right . The Shurima design is still missing.
When will the models be released? According to Riot Games, the prosthetics are supposed to be released in Spring 2019.
Halo Studio is Joining In
Not only Riot Games are working with Limbitless Solutions. The current developers of the Halo series, 343 Industries, are also collaborating with the organization. The announcement mentions a collaboration.
Prosthetics like a Spartan: As part of this collaboration, two models for a prosthetic in the style of the Spartans from Halo have been created. The first model is inspired by the Mark-VI armor of the Master Chief.
A second model is said to be available in various colors.
When will the models be released? At least the first one is expected to be released in early 2019.
Prosthetics from the 3D Printer
Limbitless Solutions is a non-profit organization based in Orlando, Florida, that specializes in prosthetics for children.
What makes the prosthetics special? By being produced using 3D printing, the prosthetics are significantly cheaper than usual. The models are fully functional and can grasp objects.
There have been recent updates regarding Halo Infinite: First information promises 4-player split-screen.
